Answer the following questions correctly i will know if this is wrong. i will report any incorrect answers! criteria for getting brainliest and not getting reported: - and make sure not to post random answers points are taken away when you are reported so don't think about answering it if you want only just want points to move up. - provide and explanation or work if this is a word problem or number problem provide work for a number problem 1. what is the fourth term in the sequence: -7.9, -8.8, -9. a) –36.4 b) –10.6 c) –26.4 d) –18.5

Answer by JKismyhusbandbae: B) –10.6

Work/Explanation: Since the sequence slowly gets smaller, it is likely that each term is something added to (subtracted from) the previous term. To get from –7.9 to –8.8, it appears that the first has had –0.9 added to it. Continue adding –0.9 to get that the fourth term is –10.6.

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
